This turned out to be a very "folk art" piece!
What we learn about changing light during every single plein air opportunity is priceless...
I learned that I need more time than this particular paint out afforded,
I need to remember my daughter's ipod so I can worship while I paint :)
and
I learned that I need to work less detailed, more flowing.

I did learn the colors to nail the road...
many thanks to my hillside painting buddy
Dawn Wagner for the color tips!

As you can see, I fine tuned the water reflection a bit.
there is a small amount of white reflecting from the flash that is not actually on the canvas.
